Evra is experiencing his worst half time talk by a manager ever right now...
I hope Silvestre is translating every word
 
Tut, we need to get a bit of the ball in central midfield, it's been ricocheting around in there and we've not been able to have any sort of sustained posession throughout the half. Anyone know why Smith is on the bench anyway? This is exactly his sort of game and we could really do with him playing.

Can understand SAF maybe playing Silvestre to help Evra a bit but to be honest why bother even thinking about taking Brown out, our defence has looked more solid in recent weeks, partly due to him.

Let's see if the half time talk's had any effect...

Yeah...Weirdly, I don't think that doing tricks until you lose the ball, overhitting almost every pass/cross and missing free headers qualifies as a good performance. Strange that.


Agreed.

I'll support any united player, but he really is starting to take the piss. It wouldn't be as bad if we knew he didn't have the ability to play well, he was amazing for periods of his 1st and 2nd season, shocking so far again today.
 
Was worried as soon as I found out Bennett was ref

looks like M.S could have played his last game for a long time if not for ever
 
45 minutes to go.Come on guys and show the Show

The offside was followed by crap defending, so, in lawyers' speak, there was a novus actus interveniens.

I must agree.

In lawyers terms, Silvestre has been les cockus uselessus.
 
the moment i saw o'shea in the midfield all hope is gone ... then throw in Silvestre ... this became worst nightmare ... what top it all off was BENNETT that cnut simply hates manutd ...
get o'shea off and bring on smithy the bring on brown for silvestre ... still might have a slight chance of getting a draw ...
 
Why isn't Brown playing...is he injured?

Fergie is worse than tinkerman Ranieri-making unneccessary changes to the team. For feck sakes we're out of the champs league so why are we resting players now...
 
F*cking Cmon United.

Show what the f*ck you are made of.

Play for that f*cking shirt. Smash this f*cking blue shite.

FFS, where is the f*cking passion.

F*CKING CMON !!!!!!!!!!

ronaldo, our worst player in the first half ?
get a fecking grip and open your eyes.
He and Rooney have been the best players so far. Our defending has been crap, especially Silves. And nothing came from the 2 central midfielders so far.
Although i'm an optimistic person, i doubt we will win or draw that game. We just dont have the quality on the pitch right now, and we miss Scholes a lot!
 
Levelling the score will be a big task. This side plays tighter and more timid when behind. Total opposite of 6 years ago when the side just knew the goals would come. And would play with flair and confidence when behind.

feckin Shitvestre, Johney n Flet-shit, whyyyy are we playing our 3 worst players in such a big game? :wenger:...oh god, Fergie sooo better prove me wrong, if we don't win today I wouldn't be surprised, kermm onnn Uniteddd tho...am gutted by that team tho....
:rolleyes: - oh well
 
All right, providing Bennett doesn't send half our team off for failing to foul City players, let's get stuck in and get something.
 
Can I get odds at the bookies on ronaldo doing something worthwhile this half?
 
Evra wasnt that bad and the stick he gets on this forum is OTT (but somehow unsurprising).
It was probably too early for him and a derby not the right game for a debut. So cheer him up and help him instead of moaning and critisizing

Well, people also knew our 4-1 win over Bolton was going to be a nightmare game as soon as the team was announced.
